Hi guys, just going into SSB2 in a few days and looking for a boost. Already using occasional Whey Protein usually in the evening for an overnight thing, but I hear there are some other supplements that work well for cyclists
Beta Alanine?
Beetroot powder/juice?
Creatine?
Primarily looking for something that will help me keep pushing through some of the harder/longer intervals. I used to mess with all kinds of stuff when I lifted weights, not sure if there’s anything we as cyclists can take that actually works.
Only interested in over the counter or online orderable type of stuff, not looking to do an Icarus experiment.
In fact, there are a lot of good supplements, but most of it are difficult to buy online or need the counter. You have to find and order it from different places. As a result, the time that I could spend on training, I wasted on searches. It’s very inconvenient. I and many of my friends have tried many supplements, we tried to increase our endurance and our strength indicators, but sometimes it has produced the opposite effect. Personally, I settled on the RAD-140 peptide, which provided me with an increase in both speed and strength without any particular side effects. On top these supplements were always easy to find on the internet. For me, this turned out to be the most comfortable option that give real results, so if you don’t want to experiment, I can advise you to try it.
There are a lot of good supplements. However, the hard part is finding something that your body will accept to avoid harsh side effects. Throughout my fitness journey, I developed an allergic reaction to creatine pills. My body was covered in red pimples, and they were itchy as hell! After that, I started searching for natural and less risky supplements to boost my strength and energy. I found excellent and safe options online, but you need to do your research. Also, if you have any allergies, then it’s best to consult with a professional.
It groups supplements into Group A,B,C,D based on the evidence behind them and whether they’re approved for use. Unless you have a specific deficit that you’re aware of, there’s probably no need to stray past Group A.
